Research

My current research interests are within computational morphology and surface syntactic parsing. Finite-state two-level morphology is the area where I have had most success.

A raw list of my publications, and a PDF file of my dissertation, see the list of publications of the department, No. 11. (which is available for personal use)

There is a picture of me (if you insist on seeing it).

"Man vill bli älskad,
i brist därpå beundrad,
i brist därpå fruktad,
i brist därpå avskydd och föraktad.
Man vill inge människorna någon slags känsla.
Själen ryser för tomrummet och vill kontakt till vad pris som helst."
 -- Hjalmar Söderberg "Doktor Glas" 1905

"Ihminen haluaa olla rakastettu,
sen puutteessa ihailtu,
sen puutteessa pelätty,
sen puutteessa inhottu ja halveksittu.
Ihminen haluaa herättää toisissa jonkinlaisia tunteita.
Sielu kammoksuu tyhjyyttä ja haluaa yhteyttä toisiin hinnalla millä hyvänsä."
